Leadership
Leadership is not about hierarchy or title or status: It is about having influence and mastering
change. Leadership is not about bragging rights or battles or even the accumulation of wealth; it’s about connecting and engaging at multiple levels. ….Leaders can no longer view strategy and execution as abstract concepts, but must realize that both elements are ultimately about
people.” - Carly Fiorina

Top Management Nationality
“Companies are realizing that they have a portfolio of human resources worldwide,
that their brightest technical person might come from Germany, or their best financial manager from England. They
are starting to tap their worldwide human resources. And as they do, it will not be surprising to see non-Americans
rise to the top.”- Christopher Bartlett, Harvard Business School
